Reaching For the Stars

CU Aerospace is located in downtown Champaign in the M2 building, located minutes from central campus of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. This exciting location provides an environment where technology-based businesses can work with one another and the University of Illinois to take advantage of opportunities for collaborative research. Our close association with the University provides us access to state-of-the-art University labs, equipment, and services. This teaming arrangement proves to be an excellent way to provide the government and commercial customers with the highest quality service in a cost effective manner.
